Looking back over the past few months time really has flew bye. It really does seem like just yesterday that I experienced one of the best days of my life as Noah was born. Although four months isn’t that long in the grand scheme of things, I really find it hard to imagine a time when Noah wasn’t a part of our lives. Already in such a short space of time he’s grew and changed so much. He’s gone from our wrinkly baby who was always screaming, to our smiley giggly baby who loves eating his fist! Noah’s personality is already shining through, he loves chewing and sucking anything that he can get his hands on, and he’s always grunting in frustration if there’s something he can’t quite do. 

Ever since giving birth to my son three months ago my skin has been, well awful. All the stress of being a new mum and all the sleepless nights has left my skin looking tired and dull, let's not even talk about those dark circles! So I thought it was about time I invested in some new base makeup to help combat it.
The first thing I decided to pick up is the YSL Youth Liberator Serum Foundation shade B10 a while ago the lady at the YSL tried this on me and I loved the dewy finish it gave on the skin which is perfect for my skin which is really dry at the minute, to fight the dryness I also bought Bobbi Brown Moisture Rich Foundation in Alabaster I've not heard much about this foundation and I haven't tried it yet but from swatching it feels extremely hydrating and lightweight.
On the more heavy coverage end of things I bought Mac ProLongwear Concealer NC15 as I've been lusting after it for ages, I also picked up the infamous Estée Lauder Doublewear In Ecru on first impression the shade seems a tad dark but it's nothing that won't work, I'm hoping to get lots of use out of this in the nighttime and on bad skin days.
I had also ordered Mac mineralize moisture foundation but selfridges messed up and sent me the time check lotion instead so now I've got to wait for them to sort it out but I can't wait to try it out.

Some of you may or may not know that I love tattoos. I got my first tattoo three days after I turned 18 and I'd wanted one for as long as I can remember. I've always loved tattoos and see them as beautiful pieces of permanent artwork. For a while now I've wanted to have a mermaid tattoo; I've always loved mermaids and all the old sailor stories about mermaids luring ships into the rocks. After doing a lot of research I decided I wanted a sailor jerry traditional style mermaid on the bottom of my leg. Originally the writing on the tattoo said "forget me not" but I decided to change it and added a Mumford and sons lyric from The Cave "make your sirens call" as its one of my favourite songs and it fits with the mermaid. I decided to have my tattoo done by Greg Moore at Ghost House Collective. All in all it only took an hour and a half to do and I was really pleased with how it turned out.
